Template:RQ:Beaumont Fletcher King/documentation
Usage
[edit]This template may be used in Wiktionary entries to format quotations from Francis Beaumont and John Fletcher's work A King and No King (1st edition, 1619). It can be used to create a link to an online version of the work at the Internet Archive.
Parameters
[edit]The template takes the following parameters:
|chapter=– if quoting from the epistle dedicatory, specify|chapter=Epistle Dedicatory.|2=or|page=, or|pages=– mandatory: the page number(s) quoted from. If quoting a range of pages, note the following:- Separate the first and last page number of the range with an en dash, like this:
|pages=10–11. - You must also use
|pageref=to indicate the page to be linked to (usually the page on which the Wiktionary entry appears).
- Separate the first and last page number of the range with an en dash, like this:
- This parameter must be specified to have the template determine the act number (I–V) quoted from, and to link to the online version of the work.
There are numerous pagination errors in the work as indicated in the following table; the text is unaffected. Specify the correct page number instead of the incorrect one.
Correct page number Incorrect page number Correct page number Incorrect page number Correct page number Incorrect page number 38 *30 46 *30 56 *48 39 *31 47 *31 57 *48 42 *34 50 *34 60 *52 43 *35 51 *35 85 *58 53 *45
|act=– mandatory in some cases: in most cases, if the page number is specified the template will determine the act number quoted from. However, it is unable to do so if page 17, 51, or 69 is specified, in which case this parameter must be used to specify the act number in uppercase Roman numerals, like this:|act=I.
| Act I pages 1–17 |
Act II pages 17–30 |
Act III pages 31–51 |
Act IV pages 51–69 |
Act V pages 69–91 |
|2=,|text=, or|passage=– the passage to be quoted.|footer=– a comment about the passage quoted.|brackets=– use|brackets=onto surround a quotation with brackets. This indicates that the quotation either contains a mere mention of a term (for example, "some people find the word manoeuvre hard to spell") rather than an actual use of it (for example, "we need to manoeuvre carefully to avoid causing upset"), or does not provide an actual instance of a term but provides information about related terms.
